How can I go about making some of this?

Nacho has his original recipe posted on the forum, just do a search and I am sure you will find it. I took his recipe and mixed it with a recipe I found on the internet for Apple Jack, which is a quick way to make some punch. Take Nacho's advice and make sure to let the mixture rest for a good long time. There is a really good interaction between the fruit, sugar & alcohol that takes place between day 120 and 180 that mellows out the flavor without affecting the proof.

Look up a recipe for a very popular Italian drink called Limoncello. That'll get you started

I will look for it. I would like to get working on something like this for Christmas and Thanksgiving time. Thanks!

Glad you guys are enjoying it. I just got released from the hospital today, after a week of pancreatitis & a gall bladder removal. 1 of the main causes of pancreatitis is alcohol, LOL. Believe it or not I only drink MAYBE 1 drink a week. They refused to rinse my innards with the tonic, which I think would have cured me permanently of most anything. I'm gonna be taking it easy for a while. once aged properly these home brews are as good sipping liquor as any 20 yr old scotch.

They thought that was what was wrong with me a couple weeks ago. I still think I passed a gall stone and it had passed on thru by the time they did the sonogram. I was doubled over in pain for 2 days, and the pain abated right before I got to the ER
